How American Industries Have Bee
Built Up by the Tariff

How American Industries Have Beer
Built Up by the Tari6.
The iron industry, which gives large
employment to labor than that of any
other interest in America, has grown
to Its present magnitude by means of
our protective tariff. The silk indus
try has shown more development in
the last decade than in a century pre-
viously, and is attributable to the
same cause. In fact. the growth Of
our textile manufacturing interests has
been unprecedented under protective
Legislation. Through the fostering
care Of the latter, improvements in
machinery have been so perfected and
labor so generally Diversified. that
the mass of our population are better
housed, fed and clothed. and our
wage workers better paid than in
any other country on the face Of the
earth.
The country generally has been bet-
tered to the extent of thousands of
millions by the effects of our protect
i've tariff. While the East and the
Middle States under its fostering inal-
ence have had years for the develop
ment Of their manufacturing interests.
the South has just started in its new
era of industrial growth. and for
years to come will need like protecting
care.
The tariff, by the great stimulus
which it has impaired to home pro-
duction of nearly all kinds. has not only
vastly cheapened the necessaries. and
even luxuries of our people. but has
also enabled US to control and supply
our home markets in such goods and
wares as the masses of our population
consume.

An old Christian black woman was
going along the streets Of New York with
basket of apples that she had for sale.
A rough sailor ran against her and upset
the basket, and stood back, expecting to
hear her scold frightfully; but she stopped

''God forgive You, my son, as do" The

done, and felt in his pocket for his money,

Jno. L. Sullivan has Met his.datch.

MINNEAPOLIS, January 18.-Sullivan,
weight 2l5 and Cardiff, 185 pounds,
fought six rounds tonight. Cardiff got
in one blow in the third round; Sullivan,
none in any. There was good deal of
clinching and little blood. The blow Car
diff struck Sullivan in the first round hit
square on the mouth and drew blood.
This made Sullivan cautious, but in mo-
ment he aimed terrific right handler
which Cardiff lodged, Sullivan's wrist
striking back of Cardiff's neck broke the
wrist bone. Sullivan concealed this fact
even from his seconds. The balance of
the affair was necessarily rather TAME,
Cardiff not being aware of Sulliyan's con-
dition. The contest was decided draw.
The general impression is that Cardiff had
the best of the fight from first to last. He
got in three blows on Sulliyan's face,
pushed him TO the ropes twice, cleverly

out that the Montana Central and
Northern, which runs from Helena, via
Great Falls and Benton, northeast to AS

cross the Missouri above Great Falls, at
the mouth of Sand coulee, in order to
reach the Sand coulee coal fields. 1t will
cross back to the north side again at the
Rainbow falls and thence on to Benton.
The crossing has been determined upon at
this point because it is the site of the great
water power which it is proposed to use
there. These falls are the most accessible
and easily utilized.
